2013 Dover Regatta Boat Race

The day may have started off wet and windy but the sun finally came through on a wonderful day of fun rowing at the Dover Regatta Boat Race.  We had 2 teams made up of students, parents, family and friends with plenty of noisy support on shore.

Each of the boats, MF Enterprise & Men of Steel, rowed their hearts out and had so much fun on the water.  After a busy day with one of our boats reaching the quarter finals it was time for the most important race of the day – a race-off between our two teams.

After nearly crashing into each other we finally got a clean start.  Clearly shaken but the danger, Men of Steel seemed to make a break for France whilst MF Enterprise stuck to their task and come away with deserving bragging rights.  Sadly a forfeit must ensue even for me!

Thank you to everyone who came, supported and made a splash.  We helped to raise £2000 for charity which as a fantastic effort!

Until next year…
